I really appreciate how you take the time to cut in the clips of the thing you are making offhand references to. It really improves the experience.

[@MoonMagicks]

I love waking up to new red cow videos. Such a chill way to start my day. You guys are awesome.

[@michaellaverty7349]

The way you switched perfectly from modern Kevin to 90's Kevin was hilarious, you're way too good at doing him.

[@Okagesan]

Ya'll should see if Junt wants to come back on the podcast soon. It'd be nice to hear some of the things he has been up to recently. Also I remember that Tiny Toons episode really well.

[@angiead]

EJ and Frankie's pee cycles have synced 😂😂

[@mr.selfimprovement3241]

Lets just pray they never *cross the streams!* 🚽👻

[@ColeslawVariant]

An antique mall near me has a copy of Phantasm 3 on laserdisk.

[@Mpresley83]

I was (still am) a huge Tiny Toons fan. You'll literally *won't* see animation like that anymore. Wikipedia states that each episode had 25,000 animation cells per episode vs the standard 10,000. Very fluid movement.

[@tommyjones1357]

I very much enjoyed this comment and will investigate Tiny Toons. Watched it a lot as a kid but have completely forgotten about it.

[@brockhaltiwanger8748]

I love Frankie talks about the animators from Tiny Toons understanding motion and "physical" comedy, there are so many scenes in The Simpsons where I thought the same thing. Making things that are physically impossible into physical comedy is kind of a genius thing. And that's not a Mandiluh affect lol (if the joke is lost it is spelled phonetically in the way Bimmy says it)

[@charlestonson2200]

8:39 Please don’t stack laserdiscs or vinyl. When you stack them, the combined weight will start warping the ones on the bottom.

[@AlexandriaBrah]

came here to say this. same goes for vinyl records, both should be stored vertically like books on a shelf

[@TheUnleetGamer]

both kevin smith era impressions are uncanny

[@Facemelter4000]

Frankie's Kevin Smith impressions - then and now - are flawless.

[@YujiNakaSonic]

This has got to be one of the most unfocused clips of the podcast yet I love it

[@thatbrianwallace]

I lost it on the Kevin Smith impression. Well done. lol

[@mrtea7562]

Its great with laserdisc how every frame is captured you can roll the frames back and forth you can see how something is animated.

[@11gingin]

i constantly think back to buttons the dog, so relatable and the last piece of physical cartoon comedy i can recall enjoying

[@NecromancyLabz]

Any time I'm feeling old I listen to this podcast to remind myself that worst case scenario, there are people out there older then me, and best case scenario, there are people out there just as old as me. You guys are old. I'm old. Lets continue to be old and talk about things we remember!

[@NISSANZ33]

Man I remember watching the Tiny Toon movie on Nickelodeon. At first I wasn’t sure but a memory was unlocked when you showed the scenes with Plucky and Hampton going to the amusement park

[@AoiShoudou]

Agreed on Tiny Toons Adventures (I loved the games too!). But are we ready as society to talk about how underrated and ahead of its time Freakazoid was? It really needs a reboot, like the Animaniacs one

[@kickpuncher870]

That Tiny Toons movie will forever be tied in my mind to Final Fantasy 2 (Jason Graves voice: FOUR!) as I rented both together.

[@shattaredentertainment4782]

See? This proves my point. Frankie gets all the shit and EJ sits back and watches it happen. Laughing Sipping his whisky. Seeing things with his new glasses. That's what you get for being likeable, Frankie. (I'm not saying EJ isn't likeable it's just Frankie's has become the face of the show so ofcorse everyone's going to go after him. Best of luck, Frankie. Stay strong)

[@freddiewadsworth9720]

That Chasing Amy Audio Commentary moment discussion made this more than worthwhile. I was SOOOO into the View-Askew-niverse back then (and still love those first 3 movies today)

[@seanami8701]

LaserDisc is natively composite video. The S-Video output really only does comb filters on some players. Modern comb filters by TVs and other things will probably be better in most cases.

[@KingEurope1]

THAT'S A CED NOT A LASER DISC AHHH I'M HAVING A PANIC ATTACK

[@onkkell]

[@fmdof]

ive bought 5 laserdisc players from resale shops over the years. 3 of them didn't work at all, and 2 of them didn't work correctly. im still waiting for "the one"

[@lstairvideos1330]

Emulators on iOS was a game changer for me. Starting to sell a lot of my collection.

[@Mephianse81]

Tiny Toons is top tier animation

[@JamesJohnson-tr1gu]

As a 44 year old, I know the pain of having to get up in the middle of the night to pee lol. We need a EJ beard care video because it’s really becoming magnificent

[@kcadventures1454]

That laserdisc cover is awesome! I have the crappy dvd but ya take what you can get.

[@mazzb305]

Chasing Amy is my favorite Kevin Smith movie. The first time I saw it the ending caught me completely by surprise.

[@RazorwireReviews]

Oh man that bigamy joke is incredible.

[@memaimu]

I used to rent that Tiny Toons VHS from Blockbuster all the time. The chainsaw guy part always scared me.

[@luisrizo8813]

Advertised on the "Curly Sue" vhs.

[@whispersignal1]

Jonathan Winters AND Sorrell Brooke (Boss Hog) were among the cast for the Tiny Toons special. How cool is that?!

[@GonzoDuke]

Frankie "The Laser Disc Fun Time Guy" 😆

[@joshpeterson8168]

Oh man, the hypothetical Columbia Tristar Laserdisk Conversation had me chuckling for a solid 20 seconds. Well done, gents.

[@ReetinEntertainment]

I have around 70 Laserdiscs. If you happen to ever go to Japan you can go to a Hard Off. They will regularly have Laserdiscs that are 100 yen a piece because no one wants them.

[@anthonyrowland9072]

After middle school back then, Tiny Toons, Animaniacs, and Batman:TAS all in a row...

[@petermanfredini]

Super dope video as always fellas. Frankie is cool but EJ is such a funky fresh player pimp! Congratulations, player.

[@nealnoir]

I remember seeing how I spent my vacation on Fox Kids split up into 2 or 3 episodes.

[@WolfeVon]

S-Video is probably a waste of time for laserdisc. Basically, the S-Video just routes the composite signal through the player's internal comb filter. Unless you have a really good player, your TV probably has a better comb filter. Its worth trying just to see how it looks but I wouldn't fret.

[@ZeroBusterXX]

Recently I learned that Chasing Amy of all things has an official manga adaptation. Anime styled Jay and Bob is an odd look

[@davidlangston8160]

Probably misses his old glasses 🤣 so good

[@Yadowing]

17:05 They did bring back Cree Summer to voice Elmyra for one episode on season two.

[@Zipzopzoobitybop]

What kind of webcams do you two use? Are they dslrs being monitored through your PC? They look incredible!

[@RedCowArcade]

yes. Frankie uses the Panasonic g9 and I use the Nikon d850. With the g9 I think you can connect a usb cable and use it as a webcam as long as you have the software installed on your computer. I use the elgato camlink4k on the hdmi output of my camera. - EJ

[@chrissantucci1279]

Wow! Please tell me you use that other things because that is still an amazing dslr! ​@@RedCowArcade

Not sure if they can see this, but if EJ wants help visiting San Diego, I can definitely help him have a great first time in the west.

Frankie, are you saying you are not a curator of laserdisc?

[@wuwei2734]

The KZbin channel Technology Connections has a playlist of the history of laser Disc. I would recommend to anyone who is a fan of the technology.

[@Paahtis]

Speaking of animation, have you guys seen the Japanese opening for the old Xmen cartoon, it's amazing.

[@MTL-Matty]

That EJ beard is getting into S tier territory

[@joshrebstock378]

S-Video is the best thing since sliced bread.

[@anthonyrowland9072]

I hooked our new 36 in CRT up to DirecTV with S-video with a mid home theater system in 1997 like "Yo, this is the peak..."

[@MajorReaction]

Hey EJ, is it bad that I absolutely love Chrono Cross but could never get into Chrono Trigger?

[@AoiShoudou]

Yes, certainly

[@Se7enBeatleofDoom]

Tiny Toons Adventures how I spent my vacation longer than most of the PG-13/R-rated DC animated universe films. Tiny Toons Adventures is 90 minutes. DC are 75 or 60 minutes average.

[@nazor1]

You Hipster! 😁 wtf is a CED? lol

[@RazorwireReviews]

That Laserdisc payoff at the end though... 🤌

[@MrBonesSrIII]

Why does the cover for Chasing Amy look like a 2000s slasher film?

[@RedCowArcade]

That’s an excellent point. Maybe just the black and white color scheme is inverted. Honestly I think the answer is that Miramax and Dimension designed all those slasher covers, and this was a Miramax film!

[@SpeedBoost]

EJ is so full of pee at night that he aint "Clairvoyant" ... he's Clearly Buoyant!

[@NintenDub]

I always say.to ppl who say retro arc/ark; "Ahh yes retro ark(arch). Just like noahs arch, or the arch of the covenant, or the giant arc in st luis"

Yeah like the archangel Michael or archangel Gabriel

[@SuperNicktendo]

That Tiny Toons movie was amazing. Begged our fourth grade teacher to watch it in class before the summer and she refused because it wasn't age appropriate. 🙄

Why are you still using that horrible earpiercing outro? It's as if you set out to make the worst outro possible and you certainly did, I have no idea why you would think it's a good outro to use.
